A system for adjusting oversubscription loading includes an interface and a processor. The interface is configured to receive a set of performance data from a set of worker systems. The processor is configured to determine a feedback indication for a worker system of the set of worker systems based at least in part on the set of performance data. The feedback indication is used to adjust an oversubscription controller on the worker system. The processor is configured to provide the feedback indication to the worker system.

Provided herein are aptamers that target T-lymphocytes and methods of use thereof.

The invention provides compositions and methods for reducing expression of a target gene in a cell, involving contacting a cell with an isolated double stranded nucleic acid (dsNA) in an amount effective to reduce expression of a target gene in a cell. The dsNAs of the invention possess a single stranded extension (in most embodiments, the single stranded extension comprises at least one modified nucleotide and/or phosphate back bone modification). Such single stranded extended Dicer-substrate siRNAs (DsiRNAs) were demonstrated to be effective RNA inhibitory agents compared to corresponding double stranded DsiRNAs.

Compositions and methods for down modulating target gene expression are disclosed.

The present disclosure relates generally to cleavable linkers and uses thereof.

Described herein are immuno-stimulatory RNA nanostructures (which comprises a single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) molecule, wherein the ssRNA molecule forms at least one paranemic cohesion crossover), as well as compositions and methods of use thereof.

The disclosure is generally related to oligonucleotides having a hairpin-like structure, nanoparticles comprising the same, and methods of using the same.

The subject invention provides a composition comprising an enomomer which comprises a) a carrier molecule, and b) at least one aptamer, wherein the carrier molecule is an antibody, an antigen-binding moiety, a serum protein, an intracellular protein, a messenger RNA (mRNA) or human serum albumin.

The invention provides a method of promoting reprogramming of a cardiac fibroblast into a cardiomyocyte by contacting the cardiac fibroblast with an isolated polynucleotide molecule comprising at least two functional miRNA sequences using a multicistronic expression system for reprogramming of fibroblasts into functional mature cardiomyocytes.

Defined multi-conjugate oligonucleotides can have predetermined sizes and compositions. For example, in various embodiment, defined multi-conjugate oligonucleotides can have advantageous properties, for example in the form of defined multi-conjugate siRNA (i.e., including two, three or more siRNA) having enhanced intracellular delivery and/or multi-gene silencing effects. In various embodiment, the defined multi-conjugate oligonucleotides can be synthesized via new synthetic intermediates and methods. The defined multi-conjugate oligonucleotides can be used, for example, in reducing gene expression, biological research, treating or preventing medical conditions, or to produce new or altered phenotypes in cells or organisms.
